It's 95 degrees and 90% humidity but I'm going to Midnight Madness anyway.

Trevor,the 1.82 60ft is slow the car just doesn't leave hard at all, 1-2 shift is awful it will buck you forward in the seat,I think the car will really like the gear and the TM has got to go,I hope we see that kind of improvement after the tuning and gear swap.

No, I am not marrying John Ryan, mmmkay? I am marrying John Payne (see above) who has been reading this site for a long time but has just registered. We're from the same area but we met in KY... how weird is that? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
The shifts are especially horrible because we don't have the shift kit installed yet. Our trans guy is getting lazy! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Y'all have to get a license plate frame that says House of Payne or a plate that says PAYNEFL. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
I know exactly what you're talking about John. The stock shifts are ridiculous. Just driving around town will make you mad; I know it did me! The shift kit made such a HUGE difference just in the drivability of the car, but the tq. mgt. got even worse @ WOT. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> We can't win for losing sometimes. I'm running two shims, but I could easily run three w/ as loose as this converter is. I bet y'all will see a similar gain from the gears and tuning.
Man, those tranny guys are always slow. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Well, PSJ, you could get us that QTP electric cutout <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
Short of that, we're registered at Target

Everyone feel free to buy gifts or send money (I accept Paypal) LOL <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I had to remind John continuously that it defeats the purpose to scan the entire store! And NO, you may not scan that big screen TV!
I did let him scan a DVD player and someone has bought it for us! LOL <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

ROFL! Ryan, I can see you now scanning the ENTIRE electronics department, among other things. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> Someone probably bought y'all a Coleman lantern for a wedding present, and Amber is still trying to figure out why. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
Kristi, it's good to know where y'all are registered. To bad you didn't tell ALL of your friends about it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> And there is NOTHING wrong with a bigscreen TV! They just suck when you have to carry them up and down stairs. <img border="0" alt="[guns]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" />

If someone was kind enough to buy it(the big screen),I would gladly pay the delivery fee <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
BTW, I would also be happy to supply a list of gift ideas <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Kristi,
Y'all are going with the quicktimeperformance electric cutout? Just put one on a buick a couple of months ago.. Very trick piece..
Quite intriguing to people when you open it on the fly or as you are next to them.
It's seems to have high quality construction and a strong motor, however, (as most made to this point) it does not always close "completely".
Not really a problem, just a little annoying..

That's great news John and Kristi! I hope you guys have a nice, enjoyable wedding.
Anything you guys need for the car, just make me a list and I'll see what I can do. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> You can list heads/cam, but I can't promise anything. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
